> Platform independent implementation of Unix `which` utility that searches for executable file in the path variable.

**TTY::Which** provides cross-platform executables search component for [TTY](https://github.com/piotrmurach/tty) toolkit.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "tty-which"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install tty-which

## Usage

**TTY::Which** has `which` method that searches set of directories for an executable file based on the `PATH` environment variable.

When the path to an executable program exists, an absolute path is returned, otherwise `nil`.

For example, to find location for an executable program do:

```ruby
TTY::Which.which("less")  # => "/usr/bin/less"
TTY::Which.which("git")   # => "C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git"
```

You can also check an absolute path to executable:

```ruby
TTY::Which.which("/usr/bin/ruby")  # => "/usr/bin/ruby"
```

You can also specify directly the paths to search using `:paths` keyword:

```ruby
TTY::Which.which("ruby", paths: ["/usr/local/bin", "/usr/bin", "/bin"])
# => "/usr/local/bin/ruby"
```

When you're only interesting in knowing that an executable exists on the system use the `exist?` call:

```ruby
TTY::Which.exist?("ruby") # => true
```
